[quote=Anonymous]If they “showed” you where belt was nicked, they weren’t showing you the timing belt. You can’t see a timing belt - it’s underneath the front cam covers of the engine. It’s completely enclosed. If they showed you a belt that you could see, it was the serpentine belt. That’s important too, though. So get it replaced. If it breaks, you may overheat and if that happens the cylinder heads will probably warp, killing the engine. Get the timing belt done too. It’s due. If it breaks, your engine is destroyed in the blink of an eye. Valves will slam into the tops of pistons, cam lobes will be ruined, pistons ruined, connecting rods ruined, possibly the crankshaft bent, valve seats bent… all this happens in seconds after the timing belt breaks.
